Windscreen wiper arm!

[Mr Tank]

Hi

Just starting to put the finishing touches to my restoration and I am in need of a replacment/new windscreen wiper arm! Do we know which car these origanly came off or are they a TVR part only!
Sill question has any body got a spare or know were I can get one! TVR Carparts have had some made but they are too long and are designed for passanger side parking!

Rumour had it many years ago that they were something like Mk. 1 Transit van!

Also heard people muttering 'Citroen' so maybe the old CX arm fits...?

I heard that for the 350i, they were the rear window from a Fiesta.

Perhaps it's just a job to take origianl along to your local motor factors and see what matches.

Yes - I had immediate success with the arm & blade from a Fiesta rear wash/wipe - Mk2 I think. I don't know if that is original spec, but it does work.

Fitted a Mk 2 Fiesta rear arm to my old 350i it fitted a treat.

Hi
Thanks for the info!
But a Fiesta rear arm parks on the passenger side! A 350i parks on the drivers side(As do all the cars) If you use the fiesta arm the blade lays at an angle on the screen instead of parallel with the edge of the bonnet.
So any abody any more ideas!
